Shell library, which can be sourced by other POSIX compatible shell
scripts. Provide helper function parsing its stdin based on the syntax of
kernel device driver parameter dasd_mod.dasd= and invoking chzdev to
produce corresponding persistent device configurations. The helper function
takes one argument, which is either "globals" or "ranges". For a complete
configuration, call the function twice, first with "globals" and then with
"ranges".
The new script library file should be packaged in a core (sub)package of
s390-tools so the script is available for initrd environments.
Users with examples:
Subsequent commit ("zdev/dracut: add rd.dasd parsing") introduces
zdev/dracut/95zdev/parse-dasd.sh performing:
zdev_parse_rd_dasd | zdev_parse_dasd_list globals 2>&1 | zdev_vinfo
zdev_parse_rd_dasd | zdev_parse_dasd_list ranges 2>&1 | zdev_vinfo
https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/pull/2534 updates
modules.d/80cms/cmssetup.sh performing:
echo "$DASD" | zdev_parse_dasd_list globals 2>&1 | vinfo
echo "$DASD" | zdev_parse_dasd_list ranges 2>&1 | vinfo
The parsing code for rd.dasd using the same syntax as dasd_mod.dasd=
is inspired by the own implementation that used to be in linuxrc.s390
of https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda.
